Ryan sat at the dining room table.
To his right sat the newly transford Izzy, complete with her new wings, tail, and budding horns.
To his left sat Lizzy. Her eyes, while they couldn't see, sohow still glared at what was sitting in his lap.
Yes, Mara, the Frost Queen, was currently sitting in his lap with a blissed-out expression on her face as Ryan gently stroked her hair.
She had insisted this was where she was allowed to sit, claiming to be afraid of Izzy's demon form.
However, the glare she gave the twins spoke about another possibility, but Ryan didn't have ti for female drama as he was trying to get answers about what happened.
Izzy was trying to explain what had transpired, but the words out of her mouth just seed so nonsensical.
"You're saying I'm so kind of "chosen" one?" Ryan asked, his brows raised in a look that said, 'do you take for a fool?'
Izzy tapped her chin, contemplating how best to describe it, "Everyone calls you people heaven's chosen because you are the only ones in history to be able to communicate with the heavens directly."
"aning…"
"aning they get direct contact with the all-mighty heavens!" Izzy exclaid emphatically.
Ryan huffed and muttered, "All-mighty heavens, my ass."
When Mara, who was in blisstopia sipping a nice warm cup of euphoria tea, heard what Ryan said, she coughed as her imaginary tea disappeared, and she shifted on Ryan's lap to look at him in horror.
"Don't say that! The heavens aren't rciful with those that slander its na." Mara said, having a pleading look in her eyes.
Ryan turned away from her cute appearance and mumbled, "It's not slander if it's true."
Sighing, Mara got off Ryan's lap and took a seat across the table from him.
Trying to change the subject, Mara turned towards Izzy after sitting down and asked, "My question is, how did you find him?"
"This couldn't be a coincidence that you two ended up as his slaves."
Lizzy had explained their relationship with Ryan earlier after things cald down.
As Izzy was about to answer, Ryan asked, "What do you an?"
Mara turned her head from Izzy to look at Ryan quizzically. "You an you don't know what they are?"
Scratching his head, Ryan said, "They're demons, right?"
Mara looked like she was waiting for Ryan to finish talking, but when Ryan didn't say anything else, she said, "But do you know what type of demons they are, right?"
Seeing Ryan slowly shake his head, Izzy and Mara were taken aback.
"Wait… you an you didn't run to prevent the ritual?" Izzy asked, her lips quivering as she looked at Ryan with expectancy.
"What ritual? You suddenly turned into a demon with wings and a tail after I looked into your eyes." Ryan said, frustrated that these girls made it seem as though this knowledge was the most basic in the world.
Hearing this, both Izzy and Mara gasped in shock.
Lizzy, silent since they sat down, said, "Do you know why Mara called you an Overlord?"
Hearing the bizarre question, Izzy looked at her sister like she was an idiot, but before she could call her out on her stupidity, Ryan said, "No, figured I misheard her or sothing."
"How is that possible?!" Izzy clamored in astonishnt, "You clearly activated your heavenly screen earlier, the legendary quest tab should have appeared with your mission."
Mara wasn't surprised that Ryan didn't know he was an Overlord, as the bloodline would only be activated when one turned 18.
Even then, for soone who needed help understanding what they were looking for, it would only be possible to tell what it was with a heavenly screen.
pAn,Da-n0v e1,c But when Mara heard Izzy's exclamation, she blurted, "You've already activated your heavenly screen?!"
Hearing the girl's shrieks, Ryan held his ears as they were not used to such frequencies.
"I saw the quest tab but was interrupted before I could read it. But what's that got to do with anything?"
Hearing this, all three girls at the table collapsed in their seats.
Lizzy: "Heavens, why did you pick him?"
Izzy: "I feel so attracted to an idiot?"
Mara: "I feel sick…"
===
Ryan grumbled to himself in his room. The trio of girls was too heartless, they treated him like he was so genie who was all-knowing. He'd only been awake for less than 24 hours in this world. How was he supposed to know everything?
Yes, he was outstanding.
Yes, he was a woman's fantasy.
Yes, he was really, really, really good-looking.
But if he could find one fault in him… well, it wasn't exactly a fault per se.
"When did I beco so narcissistic?" Muttering to himself, Ryan knew from his past experiences that he was anything but an egomaniac.
For most of his previous life, he couldn't find a single good quality about himself.
Aliza had worked with him at length about developing good self-esteem but never becoming egocentric, as if one could not see one's flaws, one could not improve.
Focusing back on the task at hand, he opened his heavenly screen.
All three girls had assured him all he needed to do was to look at the quests tab, and all of his questions would be unraveled.
[Status, Allegiance, Quests(!)]
Seeing no exclamation mark on his status screen, he figured that ant that nothing had changed since the last ti he viewed it, so he directly clicked the quests tab.
As soon as he ntally clicked the quests tab, a blaring trumpet sound many tis louder than the previous one bellowed out around him.
Ryan thought he would be deaf because the trumpet was so loud, but when the noise reached his ears, instead of the expected pain, his ears felt only comfort from the noise.
After the 10-second trumpet proclamation, the trumpets ended on one final blare, and a heavenly voice bood, "Rejoice, humans, for an Overlord has erged this day."
